To help with the shimmering of texture (especially bad with ATI cards) try those settings: mipmap to 4 in FS [...] I can vouch for the mip-mapping thing being critical to solving texture problems with the ATI cards. At 1024x768 some textures, particularly night textures, looked terrible on my 9700Pro. The after-dark NYC skyline was almost unrecognisable beneath a mess of flickering light textures. Dropping the mip-mapping to 4 all but cured it. Personal preferences will dictate how many of the other features are turned on or off but this one is a must-do. On a related note, if anyone's really ****ed off with the 'mode change' flicker that FS2004 does every time you re-start a flight or choose a menu option on a Radeon card, try changing the full-screen depth to 16bit instead of 32bit. It doesn't cure it but it reduces the number of flickers, and they seem to cycle slightly faster. Not the best solution, but it reduces the frustration a bit while we wait for new drivers and/or a patch. -- Kev __________________________________________________ ________________________ "Caution: remove infant before folding for storage."
